Investment Thesis
The firm targets ventures that can deliver outsized, systemic impact by prioritizing scale while seeking meaningful depth: “We recognize impact has two dimensions: scale and depth. We strive for the first but aspire to reach both.” Investment decisions are driven by clear, opinionated theses and a rigorous problem‑solving method — a “first principles approach” where they “identify current assumptions, break the problem into its fundamental principles, and deeply understand its core.” Operationally they favor rapid learning and iteration: “Fail fast, otherwise win,” turning failures into accelerated, transformative successes.

Value Add
- Explicit dual emphasis on both scale and depth of impact: "We recognize impact has two dimensions: scale and depth. We strive for the first but aspire to reach both."
- An unapologetically opinionated, outspoken approach to investing: "We are opinionated voices challenging the status quo... we must contribute openly, ensuring our thoughts are straightforward and devoid of politics."
- Use of first-principles problem decomposition as a core analytic tool: "Identify current assumptions, break the problem into its fundamental principles, and deeply understand its core."
- Operationally oriented toward fast iteration and risk-limited learning: "Avoid costly long-term errors, turn fast learning from failures into major successes with a street-smart mentality."
